the sun lays low on a solemn city
all i see is sexual red
the last rays burst through between the train cars
and shine directly on my head
so come and find me in this moment
and expose a passionate man for what he is
we'll cut loose our gold
'cause we need fire
and only kindling can it buy
wildness is our treasure
so boldly surrender
to me and to the night
on the lash
and lashing out
it's evil's sway tonight
a candle's pulse is no companion
when all you see is sexual red
you burn away your dreams inside a journal
and leave those primal words unsaid
i'll run to find you in this moment
and expose a passionate women for what she is
we'll cut loose our gold
'cause we need fire
and only kindling can it buy
wildness is our treasure
so boldly surrender
to me and to the night
on the lash
and lashing out
it's evil's sway tonight

Two new songs from the Nashville musician (and drummer in Sad Baxter) reveal a talent for rock hooks and anthemic power pop aesthetics. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 11, 2022
A slow drip of Tropicália-infused psychedelia from New Orleans rock outfit Blue Basin: balmy one moment, aggressive the next. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 22, 2022
Absolutely brilliant, dreamy indie folk-rock. Most of the songs are somewhere between two and three minutes but feel as though they last a lifetime (in a good way). Beautifully heart-wrenching from beginning to end. Kirk Gauthier
